Higgins armoury online database changes -- myArmoury.com

Look what just happened on the Higgins armoury database: high res pictures instead of thumbnails sized foggy shots (or close to high res, the bastard sword pic below is 1600*1200). It's a wip apparently, as these are not to be found on each item, quiet a treat nonetheless. I don't have time to go through all of these but I surely will...

For your viewing pleasure, two examples below:

Thanks for the head's up.

It's odd that as of now their database still shows items that have been recently sold from their collection.

Quite a complex hilt for such an early sword.

I am not sure how new the images are but I had been using the Forgeng pages for some years now.. There was a recent gallery brought to bear in a thread at Vikingsword

That type XIV I posted above was not here a month ago for sure...I had been looking for a decent picture of that one for some time now, checking there quiet regularily.,,so there are some changes for sure...to what extend I can't say.
